Was Pa poisoned?

Another irresistible slice of small-town mystery from USA Today Bestselling Author P.D. Workman!

“What great characters and such an exciting story line. Love this series.”

“The plot is strong, the storytelling flawless and the characters well developed and interesting. Highly recommended!”

Just when things finally settle down in Bald Eagle Falls, trouble calls from out of town…

Auntie Clem’s Bakery is thriving, the town is calm, and Erin Price is enjoying a rare moment of peace. But when Vic gets a distressing call—her father is gravely ill—Erin doesn’t hesitate to join her for the trip to Moose River.

What starts as a compassionate visit quickly turns into something much darker.

Vic’s family is keeping secrets. Her father’s sudden illness raises questions no one wants to answer. And Erin has a nagging suspicion that someone close to Vic may be hiding a deadly truth.

As tensions rise and danger closes in, Erin finds herself in unfamiliar territory—without the safety of her bakery, her routines, or the comforts of home.

But murder doesn’t stop at the town line… and neither does Erin.

Author Notes may contain spoilers!

I decided it was time for Vic to go back to Moose River again to deal with a mystery surrounding her family. But when her father had chased her off last, he had told her never to come back home, and she had agreed. So what would get her to go back home again after that?

Would she go back if her mother asked her to? If someone in the family was in danger? Despite everything that had happened, Vic had grown up in a small, insular community, where family ties were valued and she was expected to participate in working the farm. She hunted and worked with her older brothers and was very close to them, or at least to Jeremy, the sibling nearest to her in age.

I knew that writing about Vic’s family would give me plenty of new fodder for a story. Their ties to organized crime, Crazy Theresa, and the dysfunctional family relationships gave me lots of places to take the story. Maybe there are a few twists and turns that you didn’t expect!

“P.D. Workman is an incredibly versatile writer. No matter which of her books I read I am drawn into a great story and honestly, I don’t think I’ve followed another author that could go from cozy mystery to YA to a PI series dealing with mental health issues. Really enjoy her books!”

“[P.D. Workman’s] stories are so believable and you can’t help but feel like you know these people. You find yourself crying, laughing and feeling the characters emotions. Now if an author can make you cry and feel every emotion in a story, she is one hell of an author.”

“P. D. Workman, does not shy from probing the deep psychological scars of childhood trauma, mental illness, and addiction. Also characteristic of this author, these extremely sensitive issues are explored with extensive empathy, described with incredible clarity, and portrayed with profound insight.”

“Once again P.D.Workman has created an intense psychological mystery that impacts a wallop of thought induction. The writing is so well developed and draws you into the characters story.”
